I usually don't buy eye shadow palettes from e.l.f.
I find that their single eye shadows tend to be better quality than the palettes, so I mainly stick to those.
But I'm a sucker for any makeup product that looks cool/pretty/unique and since e.l.f's items are all pretty affordable, I was willing to take chance on the relatively new 32-piece Geometric Eyeshadow Palette.
The palette was originally $12, which is a pretty good deal for 30+ shadows, but I actually picked it up for only $6, making it an even better deal.
Sadly, though, I still wouldn't recommend it for even $6.
The quality just isn't there.
The palette obviously looks cool with all of the shadows broken up into triangle and diamond shaped pans. The color range is good too -- you get some natural shades, including browns and beige tones, as well as some brighter colors like purple and teal, and dark, smokey shades like navy and black too.

When you swipe the shadows across your eye and try to blend them in, they're patchy and messy.
It's beyond frustrating.

They're seriously that bad.
I don't feel bad about trying the palette because it was only $6, but I definitely don't want to see anyone else waste money on it. You're much better off buying a couple of the Studio Single Shadows or Baked Shadows (You can expect a review of these in the not too distant future) for that price.
Have you tried any of the e.l.f. Geometric Eyeshadow Palettes? Did you have a better experience than mine?
